Jesy Nelson Shares Romantic Paris Getaway Snaps Amid 'I'm A Celeb' Withdrawal

Jesy Nelson has shared a series of photos from a romantic trip to Paris with her boyfriend Ben Davies. The images were posted to Instagram shortly after reports emerged that Nelson had withdrawn from a six-figure deal to participate in the next series of "I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!"

Nelson, 35, and Davies, a landscape gardener, appeared in a collection of snapshots capturing their time in the French capital. One photo showed the couple taking a selfie, while another captured them embracing. Nelson captioned the post with "Life with you??? Yes please."

Reports suggest Nelson's decision to pull out of the reality show was to care for her twin daughters, Ocean and Story. A source indicated that Nelson would not leave her children, who were reportedly unwell, to enter the Australian jungle, emphasizing that her family is her priority.

"ITV have been amazing and are supporting her all the way. The door will always be left open for Jesy," the source told The Sun. The Daily Mail has reached out to ITV and Nelson's representatives for comment.

In January, Nelson announced that her daughters had been diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). She has since been recognized for her advocacy in persuading the government to implement a national screening program for newborns for the condition.

Nelson publicly debuted her relationship with Davies last month at the National Television Awards. While she walked the red carpet alone, Davies was seen seated next to her during the ceremony. Nelson shared the first photograph of Davies on her Instagram page at the end of August, marking what is often referred to as a "hard launch" of their relationship. The couple reportedly began dating in August, following Nelson's split from her ex-partner Zion. Nelson has previously spoken about her separation from Zion in her Amazon Prime documentary, "Jesy Nelson: Life After Little Mix," describing it as a traumatic experience that ultimately impacted their relationship as a couple.
